Chasseurs de baleines

A single-issue French comic from Gallimard, Chasseurs de baleines (1986) presents a standalone, realistic look at the world of whaling. Created during a period when French bande dessinée often explored historical and documentary subjects, it stands as a focused, self-contained work rather than an ongoing series. Its significance lies in its unflinching portrayal of a controversial industry, capturing a specific time and trade in a format that remains a complete, singular statement.
